Mission
Our mission is to challenge the growth of radicalisation and political violence by bringing together the world's most innovative thinkers from academia, politics and business.
ICSR is a unique partnership in which King's College London, the University of Pennsylvania, the Regional Centre for Conflict Prevention Amman (Jordan) and the Interdisciplinary Center Herzliya (Israel) are equal stakeholders. ICSR affiliates include the Centre for Policy Research in New Delhi and the Pakistan Institute for Peace Studies in Islamabad.
Testimonials
-
Chuck Hagel, United States Senator
The work done by ICSR is enormously important, because you have no hidden agenda other than finding the most intelligent solution to any given problem. Nowhere is this more critical than when dealing with issues like terrorism, radicalisation and political violence."
-
Mohamed Chebaro, Al Arabiya, London Bureau Chief
The issues tackled by ICSR are directly relevant to people in the Middle East and beyond. ICSR will bring access to a range of real professionals, who work day in day out on questions of radicalization and the latest tools used to address this challenge."
-
Francisco Santos Calderon, Vice-President, Colombia
There is absolutely no question in my mind that the world needed this. The greater understanding that we have of the reasons a person chooses to travel down this dark road, from political activism to setting a bomb off somewhere, the better we will be able to design strategies to effectively counter it, and the more effective will be our efforts as we focus on root causes rather than the symptoms."
-
Kim Campbell, Former Prime Minister of Canada
When I was in government, I wished that something like ICSR existed. It's extremely important for those of us making the policies to have a forum from which to get independent expert advice and analysis to help with some of the tough questions that you don't have the time to examine in depth."
-
Mustafa Ceric, Grand Mufti of Bosnia Herzegovina
When I saw something that is organised in London by four prominent institutions from the United States, Jordan, Israel and the UK, I thought this is a very good idea that they do such work."
-
Jacqui Smith, UK Home Secretary
There are few areas of domestic or international public policy where the case for exploration and enquiry is more pressing, where the need for understanding a debate is more urgent. I applaud you on this important initiative."
